The epilogue was so pointless. Other than that, this wasn’t a super memorable book for me. It definitely wasn’t bad, I just wasn’t super impressed. I’m glad that so many other people liked it though!

This book held my attention from beginning to end. I loved reading from each character’s perspective. I wasn’t able to guess who the killer was, although many times I thought I knew who it was.

I was slightly disappointed with the twist and just wish we had gotten some further context.
